This article analyzes the professional deformation of a teacher and its impact on
relationships with students. Professional deformation is a negative change in the teacher's
pedagogical activity, leading to psychological and emotional fatigue, loss of motivation, and a
decrease in pedagogical abilities. These conditions negatively affect the teacher's sincerity
towards students, pedagogical approaches, and teaching methodology. The article considers the
causes of professional deformation, its impact on relationships with students, as well as
methods for eliminating professional deformation. Professional deformation can be prevented
by providing psychological support, professional development and effective support to teachers.
Such approaches increase the effectiveness of the educational process.

Many world and foreign scientists note that today, professional qualities, including the
professional formation of a teacher, are rising to the forefront among human needs due to their
importance. New problems in the domestic, economic, political and cultural spheres constantly
require the development of professional criteria, and this increases the desire of specialists in
the field to enrich the problems of professional self-awareness and professional formation of a
person with theoretical ideas [4].
In our republic, serious attention is paid to the education system, one of which is the
implementation of a number of effective measures to prevent professional deformation of
teachers and ensure their professional development. Efforts to prevent professional deformation
of teachers are continuing through psychological assistance, professional development, social
support, improvement of working conditions, and the use of new pedagogical technologies. All
this increases the motivation of teachers, helps them to effectively carry out their pedagogical
activities, and serves to improve the quality of education.
Professional deformation of a teacher is a negative change in the psychological and
emotional state that occurs as a result of prolonged engagement in pedagogical activities, which
directly affects the teacher's attitude to work, pedagogical abilities, and relationships with
students. Professional deformation leads to a decrease in the teacher's mental state, a decrease in
interest in his work, and difficulties in carrying out effective pedagogical activities. Analyzing
how this process affects the relationship between teacher and student, and finding ways to
prevent this problem, is necessary to increase the effectiveness of the education system[10].

Teacher professional deformation is a process that occurs as a result of a decrease in the
teacher's psychological, emotional and intellectual resources, and develops for several reasons.
One of the most important reasons is emotional exhaustion, which is one of the main and
important components of teacher professional deformation. It occurs as a result of enduring a
high level of stress and psychological overload for a long time. Constant stress and high
emotional demands in a teacher's professional activity have a serious impact on his
psychological state, as a result of which the teacher loses enthusiasm, energy and motivation for
his work.
Emotional exhaustion is mainly manifested by the teacher feeling tired, irritable and
apathetic. This condition prevents him from effectively carrying out his pedagogical activities,
and also negatively affects his relationships with students. The occurrence of emotional
exhaustion can lead to a teacher feeling emotionally empty. This weakens the teacher's attitude
towards work and contributes to the development of professional deformation.
Motivation is one of the main factors in the effective pedagogical activity of a teacher.
In the process of professional deformation, motivation may be lost due to factors such as a
decrease in the teacher's enthusiasm, energy and motivation for work, long-term work under
high pressure, low salaries, and low evaluation in society. This has a negative impact on his
professional activity. Loss of motivation significantly reduces the teacher's pedagogical
approach, relationships with students and the teacher's self-esteem. Teachers’ lack of social and
financial support for their work leads to the development of professional deformation. If
teachers’ work is not recognized, this reduces their motivation and reduces their enthusiasm for
work. Difficulties in mastering new methods and technologies, reduced enthusiasm of teachers,
resistance to new pedagogical approaches or failure to master new methods lead to a loss of
motivation[9].
Another cause of professional deformation of a teacher is social isolation, which is a
state in which a teacher isolates himself socially or has difficulties in communicating with
others. Social isolation negatively affects the mental and emotional state of a teacher, which can
lead to problems in his pedagogical activity. Social isolation aggravates the working conditions
of a teacher. Teachers may not feel sufficient support from their colleagues or social networks.
Teachers helping each other and communicating with each other plays an important role in
increasing professional morale and motivation.
Teachers who experience professional deformation have difficulty communicating with
other teachers or the head of their organization. This state of the teacher leads to difficulties in
teaching students, especially in helping them in difficult situations, and to ineffective
pedagogical approaches. Students perceive the teacher’s self-confidence, which negatively
affects their learning process. If a teacher is socially withdrawn, he or she may not
communicate well with his or her students and may have difficulty using effective teaching
methods. Teachers may also be less likely to participate in sharing their pedagogical ideas and
experiences.
Encouraging teachers to support each other, helping each other, and creating
opportunities for communication and exchange of experiences reduces social isolation.
Encouraging teachers to work as a team helps to improve their psychological state[8].

Types of professional deformation. According to the research of E.F. Zeer and E.E.
Simanyuk, professional deformation occurs in 3 forms:
1. General professional deformation - is characteristic of "human-human" professions.
Despite the fact that this personality trait and professional activity are associated, the degree of
deformation varies. For example, doctors have a "grief fatigue" syndrome, which reflects
emotional indifference to patient complaints. The combined manifestation of the features of
general professional deformation leads to the similarity of certain professions and ease of
recognition.
2. Specific professional deformation - occurs in the process of adaptation to certain
specialties of the profession. Any profession includes several specialties. Each specialty has its
own set of deformations. For example, suspiciousness in an investigator, active aggression in an
operative, etc. Doctors with different specialties also develop their own deformations.
3. Professional typological deformation - is based on the relationship between the
individual psychological characteristics of a person (temperament, character, abilities) and the
psychological structure of his activities. As a result, the following features may appear:
deformation of the professional orientation of a person: a change in the
motivation of activity (goal-oriented motive), restructuring of the value system, pessimism,
distrustful attitude to news.
deformation formed on the basis of a certain ability (organizationalism,
sociability, intelligence, etc.). For example, an increase in the level of demandingness, high
self-esteem.
deformation based on character traits: indifference, striving for position, role
expansion, dominance. This group of deformations is formed in people of various professions
and does not have a specific professional orientation.
Ways to prevent and eliminate professional deformation of a teacher
Providing psychological support to teachers and organizing trainings for stress
management is an effective way to prevent social isolation. Through psychological counseling,
teachers will have the opportunity to manage their emotions and restore confidence in their
work.
Developing teamwork among teachers, ensuring their active participation in mutual
cooperation, helps to improve social ties. Bringing teachers closer together through cooperation
in lessons, joint projects and events increases their professional motivation.
Creating opportunities for teachers to help each other through social networks or online
platforms also reduces social isolation. Teachers can strengthen their social ties by sharing their
experiences, learning new methods and giving each other advice.
Introducing teachers to new pedagogical technologies and methods, as well as directing
them towards professional development, will increase the teacher's enthusiasm for his work and
help prevent professional deformation. Diversifying lessons, directing teachers to teach students

in new, innovative ways, will help increase their motivation. This will help teachers maintain
interest in their work and will positively affect students' academic success.
In conclusion, teacher professional deformation significantly reduces the effectiveness
of the education system, as it leads to a loss of trust, motivation, and effective communication
between the teacher and the student. To prevent professional deformation, teachers need
psychological assistance, continuous professional development, and social support. These
measures will protect teachers from professional deformation and create the opportunity to
effectively educate students.
